Chapter 869: Holy Violet Temple Lord’s Decision, Firmament Star’s Perils
On a certain purple planet in Violet Gold Galaxy.
Inside a palace.
A burst of terrifying and fury-filled energy erupted, causing all the cultivators on Planet Zi to look in the direction of the palace with shock.
“It’s been a long time since the Temple Lord got this angry.”
“Indeed. I reckon it’s because of recent events.”
“Well, it must be that. After all, the Seats have been slain one after another. No wonder the Temple Lord is so enraged. By the looks of it, he can no longer sit still and do nothing.”
Holy Violet Temple was the strongest cultivation orthodoxy on Planet Zi.
They were also the main driving force of Planet Zi, the pillar of the planet’s entire civilization.
At that moment, a purple light shot out from the palace and burst out in the air. Everybody who saw it could not help but marvel at it.
“The Temple Lord has summoned the Four Great Guardians.”
Whoosh, whoosh…
Several streams of light flew towards the palace.
Inside the palace.
A middle-aged man in a golden robe sat on the very top, with anger brewing in his purple eyes. That person was Holy Violet Temple’s Temple Lord.
At the same time, he was also the ruler of Planet Zi!
“The Seats keep getting slain one after the other. How do you guys think we should approach this?”
Holy Violet Temple Lord asked in a cold voice.
Below him, the Four Great Guardians of Planet Zi looked at each other.
“We cannot allow the Sword Poet Immortal, Chu Kuangren, to remain in this realm. If he continues to live, the world will always remember him as the slayer of Planet Zi’s Immortal Progenies. Besides, this guy has done too much bad to Planet Zi, so I suggest that we kill him before he gets any stronger.”
A middle-aged man dressed in white said.
Planet Zi had four Guardians, namely the Sky, Earth, Dark, and Gold Guardian. The white-clad middle-aged man was the Sky Guardian and the strongest of them all, considering he was a late-stage Heavenly Daoist Celestial.
“I concur.”
An old man in black robes said gently.
He was Earth Guardian, the second-ranked Guardian.
“Anything is fine with me. You can kill him if you want to,” the young-looking Dark Guardian replied nonchalantly.
“Chu Kuangren cannot be kept alive!”
The last of the four, the Gold Guardian, also agreed with the proposal to kill Chu Kuangren.
Truth be told, the fact that the Holy Violet Temple Lord summoned those four into his palace showed that his patience with Chu Kuangren was at its breaking point.
“Chu Kuangren is not the only one we have to kill. We have to annihilate all those who are backing him as well! The Firmament Star civilization who supports him also needs to be destroyed so that the world can understand that whoever offends Planet Zi will suffer dire consequences!” the Holy Violet Temple Lord said coldly.
“The Firmament Star is just an ordinary high-level cultivation civilization. They only have like a few Daoist Celestials, so we don’t have to be worried at all. Destroying such a civilization is a trivial matter. You can leave that to me.” Gold Guardian chuckled and said.
There was a hint of tyranny in his eyes, and two sharp canine teeth at the corners of his mouth. A surge of yokai qi faintly emanated from his body.
He was a Planet Zi wild beast who had affirmed his Dao and was savage by nature. Back when Planet Zi was expanding its crusade, many civilizations were wiped out in the process. He was the one who single-handedly carried out most of those.
“Alright. We shall hand over the destruction of Firmament Star to the Gold Guardian. However, don’t forget that Chu Kuangren must not be spared after you destroy Firmament Star. Otherwise, once he grows stronger, the consequences we have to bear will be unimaginable. Hence, there cannot be any errors in our operation to kill Chu Kuangren this time!”
“Chu Kuangren’s biggest backing force is the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal. We can’t ensure that he will not interfere in this operation, so I will ask the Great Forefather to keep him occupied. I will leave the Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal’s good friends, G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial, and the rest, to you guys,” Holy Violet Temple Lord said.
The Holy Violet Temple Lord had rallied Planet Zi’s Pseudo Immortals and even the Great Forefather for the operation. That just showed how badly he wanted Chu Kuangren dead this time.
“Okay.”
The few of them nodded.
“I shall head to the Firmament Star now then.”
The Gold Guardian said rather impatiently.
“Hold on. ”
The Holy Violet Temple Lord stopped him. “When you get to Firmament Star, follow up on Zi Wuhen and the agreement we had with the Blood Origin Star last time. Notify them that we will a.s.sist them in occupying Firmament Star. I’ve a.s.signed Zi Wuhen to handle this, but I’ve lost contact with him quite a while ago. I suspect that something has happened to him.”
“You’re saying that they have beings who can harm an Immortal Progeny?”
The Gold Guardian was somewhat surprised.
“Hah. Have you forgotten that Chu Kuangren is from Firmament Star? In my opinion, there’s a very high chance that what happened to Zhi Wuhen has something to do with him.”
The Dark Guardian grinned and said.
“Possibly.”
“So that means three of our Planet Zi Seats have died in the hands of this person?” Sky Guardian asked with a gloomy face.
Every Immortal Progeny was precious to them.
In the current day and age, even the death of one Immortal Progeny would be extremely painful for them.
Now, three of them are dead.
Moreover, they were all killed by the same person!
That fact alone made their killing intent against Chu Kuangren intensify. Even though they knew Dusty Sky Pseudo Immortal would be a deterrent, they could not hold back.
“Count me in for your operation to kill Chu Kuangren.”
At this moment, an indifferent voice sounded.
A young man slowly walked into the main hall. He was dressed in a gorgeous purple robe and had jet black hair up to his waist. Like Holy Violet Temple Lord, he also had a pair of purple pupils, but the purple he had was of a lighter shade.
“Your Royal Highness.”
“Your Highness, you want to come with us too?”
The person who just arrived was the First Seat of the Holy Violet Temple, Zi Xiao!
He was also the second most powerful Immortal Progeny in the Violet Gold Galaxy. It was said that his cultivation had reached the Heavenly Daoist Celestial Realm hundreds of years ago.
If so, his cultivation level today would be even more unfathomable.
“I’ll tag along. I want to have a look at this Sword Poet Immortal.”
Zi Xiao bowed his head slightly.
The Holy Violet Temple Lord pondered for a moment before he said, “That’s fine with me, but Chu Kuangren has extraordinary combat strength. Do be careful.”
“In the entire Violet Gold Galaxy, no one below the Heavenly Daoist Celestial level can hurt me!” Zi Xiao stood pridefully with his hands crossed.
…
The ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom.
After having the Three Thousand Firms collect the materials for brewing the G.o.dly Awakening Wine, Chu Kuangren returned to the city hall. He held that jug of G.o.dly Awakening Wine he won from the gacha and stayed in his room all day.
When one of the city hall’s servants pa.s.sed by the room, he recalled whiffing the famed intoxicating alcoholic qi. As soon as he went closer, he got so drunk that he pa.s.sed out straight away.
When he finally came to, he found that his cultivation level had greatly enhanced.
The story made many people eager to give it a try too.
Later, after a strict prohibition from G.o.dly Moon Daoist Celestial, the people finally avoided Chu Kuangren’s room and stopped bothering him.
Meanwhile, after setting up countless prohibitions around the room, Chu Kuangren drank half a jug of the G.o.dly Awakening Wine all in one gulp. The overwhelming alcoholic qi made him lie down on the bed immediately. He felt so drunk that he could black out anytime.
A few cups of this G.o.dly Awakening Wine would have been strong enough to knock out a Heavenly Daoist Celestial, not to mention half a jug.
Chu Kuangren could feel his soul getting so intoxicated that it was floating, as though it would break away from his body in the next instant and traverse out in the universe.
He barely managed to keep his head clear and urged the Universal Cauldron Physique to refine the alcoholic qi. With that, he entered an unprecedented state of epiphany.
“This time, I must deduce a higher level of the Single Thought Series and Invincible Technique!” Chu Kuangren thought to himself.
His three great souls now had the help of the G.o.dly Awakening Wine.
Chu Kuangren’s confidence soared to an unprecedented height.
While he was busy getting ‘drunk’, a crisis was fast approaching the Ancient G.o.dly Moon Kingdom and Firmament Star.
…
Firmament Star.
A stream of light shot past.
Looking at the blue and white star in front of him, a hint of cruelty lit up in the Gold Guardian’s eyes. “What a gorgeous planet. It would be very beautiful if it exploded in the universe again.”
“But it’s alright, no rush for that. I can wait. I will go down there and have some fun myself before I blow you up and turn you into a colorful display of fireworks in the universe!”
The Gold Guardian let out a hearty laugh and then turned into a stream of light, quickly making his way towards Firmament Star. On his body, a rigorous and brutal yokai qi also erupted instantly.. “Firmament Star, your doom has come!”
